Re-fit mech on ship?

[[G35]Burnacid]

Can I, if so. How? I recall seeing something to purchase and place on your ship but for the life of me can find it anymore or any info by google.

The Mech Assembly Station (the station at which you change out your mech's parts) is only available to use at the Outpost and inside of special rooms which can be built as part of personal space stations. There is no (vanilla) way to obtain a Mech Assembly Station on your ship.

Alright, thanks for the reply :)

There is a vanilla method (i.e. no mods required), but it involves admin commands

So:

Press ENTER
Type /admin (ENTER)
Press ENTER
Type /spawnitem mechassemblystation (ENTER)
Press ENTER
Type /spawnitem mechcraftingtable (ENTER)
Press ENTER
Type /admin (ENTER)

You now have both mech related stations to place on your ship ;)

I prefer not to "hack" but that could seriously be something to consider - it's just a pain to go back and forth to the outpost to refit your mech. Thanks for the tip!

Glad to be of help

It's not really a hack though as you're not modifying any code, you are simply telling the sandbox to spawn those items for accessibility.

Item costs and crafting availability is exactly the same as at the outpost providing you do that last /admin command to turn off admin mode.

If you don't turn off admin mode then it becomes a cheat by making everything manufacturable at zero cost. I agree this takes the fun out of it. All that happens by spawning these things at your ship is a cutting of travel time to the devices (they can be reached simply by beaming to ship) no other effects occur on your game

Similar methods can be used for spawning the dungeon anvil and terraformer stations if you want to start changing planets. You still need to do the dungeons however so that you can harvest the appropriate materials; it's just easier to place the appropriate machinery in a space station or the large rooms of your ship

Here's part of one of my stations with the spawned machinery.
